Depending on your settings, this backup will be either full or incremental. But its size is not likely to
be less than a full backup size. Therefore, it is not practical to reassign a subscription to a machine
whose first backup was done as an initial seeding. You will need to either redo the initial seeding
(which requires a new license) or to transfer the sizeable backup over the Internet.
All earlier created backups remain intact. You can delete them manually if necessary. Keep in mind
though, backups can be deleted from a subscription only by the machine to which the subscription is
assigned. In our example, you have the following options.
Before reassigning
Delete backups from Subscription 1 using Machine 1 (if it is available and turned on). Delete backups
from Subscription 2 using Machine 2.
After reassigning
Delete backups from Subscription 1 using Machine 2. You cannot delete backups from Subscription 2,
unless you assign this subscription to any machine.
6 Backup to the online storage
This section provides step-by-step instructions for backing up data from a machine to the online
storage.
These instructions focus on the following typical scenario:
Daily backup of important files, and deleting backups older than one month. See "Backing up an
individual machine (p. 21)".
